The album starts out with a classical music style intro which brings and epic feeling to the recording before going into a heavy and atmospheric direction as well as utilizing some blast beats and death metal growls along with a small amount of melodic vocals and black metal screams which also leads to the guitars bringing in melody.
As the album progresses the band continue their mixture of black, death and atmospheric doom metal as well as bringing in gothic and symphonic elements to the record and they also bring in melodic guitar solos and on the 4th song powerful bass guitars, female vocals and more epic elements are added onto the recording.
On this recording Return To Innocence bring in a lot of elements ranging from death, black and doom metal and mixing them with melody, atmosphere, gothic and symphonic elements and this album could of easily came out in the 90's and they show that this mixture can still be alive and well in 2014.
Song lyrics cover darkness and fantasy themes, while the production has a very strong, powerful, heavy and professional sound where you can hear all of the musical instruments that are present on this recording.
In my opinion Return To Innocence are a very great sounding mixture of black, doom, death, gothic and symphonic metal and if you are a fan of those musical genres, you should check out this band. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Tristan's Dream" "Wasted heart" and "The Ring Of The Moon". 8/5 out of 10.
